Dear,

- Try to appear confident (but modest and easy going) during interview;

- If you are a girl, try to be a person during interview instead of a girl;

- If you are boy, look modest and a bit humble;

- Go through major features of local laws (if you have studied), and IFRSs/ISAs specially on the new pronouncements like ISA-600, IFRS-4, 7, 8 and 9 (at least intorduction must be in your knowledge);

- Don't argue on any point;

- If something is not known don't give wrong answers; simply tell that you don't know;

- Use a good dress that can conform to normal office code; Boys should preferably use plain shirt (may be white), a trouser, necktie, a watch, a file having some plain papers along with other documents and a pen (avoid hard perfumes); Girls must avoid using make ups/make overs, wearing substantial amount of perfume and too colorful dress. Try to look simple;

- Shoes must be clean;

- Concentrate on what interviewer is asking and try avoid to say "sorry, I could not get you sir" sort of sentences;

- Keep the nerves in control.

Rest depends upon luck.

Best regards,


KAMRAN.

salam,

sometimes they also ask questions from taxation
so try to have an overview of recent amendmends and specialy FTR/PTR zarur daikh k jana if u studied PAK tax,, property income bhi daikh lena

in AFF khi office usually 2 managers take 1st interview, in very rare cases they ask questions from economics, but in the 2nd interview most of the partners simply love to ask queries from econmics, 90% of my frnds faced the same situation including me as well

anyways wish u my best wishes for the interview

i guess i personally know you as u r the one who started CA and ACCA both at a time but quited CA aftrwards, i was also in TSA and knew you if u r dat asavira otherwise m sorry 4 misunderstanding (if any)

regards,

LøL. By the way doesn't AFF take ACCA qualifieds?

1 Just try to show them That U have Potential to do work.

2 Show them Confidence.

3 Try to be SURE on your talk, Avoid " I Think", " Perhaps" Etc Etc.

4 Never say " Give me Opportunity, Give me chance " They are not calling U to give U chance, They need a person who can Do their work, Who deserves.

5 Make eye to Eye contact. Try also to bluff things where required.

Gud LUK.

I am sorry to say this, but to me you don't deserve another call.

I know you will mind it. No problem. Truth does not have to change.
